I don't know why this particular schedule starts on "Game Day 2" - that makes no sense to me, but I've seen it in other schedules as well. It's certainly not the way I make schedules.
I would take this to mean that if you had your schedule - per start_month / start_day... - set to, say, the beginning of March, but started off the actual schedule with game day = 32, then your game would transition from pre-season to regular season at the beginning of March, but the first games wouldn't be played until the beginning of April. Or something like that... I'm not sure why we'd want to do that, but that might be how that would work...

Thanks for all of your other answers I will test the last one about schedule naming convention, and report back here.
